Should You Drive at High Speed Before or After the First Maintenance?

[SanLandon]

Drive at high speed before the first maintenance. The break-in period for a new car is generally around 2,000 kilometers. Under normal circumstances, it is necessary to drive at high speed to allow the engine to operate fully, usually not exceeding two-thirds of the maximum speed, maintaining a steady speed for more than 10 minutes, then coasting in neutral until the car stops. Before the first maintenance, pay attention to the following points: 1. Make an appointment in advance: It is best to schedule an appointment with the 4S store beforehand; otherwise, you may encounter situations where no service bays are available or long waiting times. 2. Bring necessary documents: When going for the first maintenance, bring essential items such as the maintenance manual and vehicle registration. If unsure about what to bring, clarify during the appointment. 3. Record issues promptly: If you encounter any faults or questions while driving, note them down and inform the staff during the first maintenance registration so that the technician can inspect all issues during the service.
